Well, before anyone can answer that, we need to know "How are you defining 'minorities'?" Women ? (who technically aren't a minority) Blacks? Hispanics? But how about "Jewish"? They're a minority. As are Catholics. And "Italian-American". For that matter, I'm pretty sure every one of them has had a post-graduate degree, which puts all of them in a minority group. What he/she said^^ is a very good point. If your talking about African-Americans there have been two, but without clearer information I cannot answer your question fully.

Barack Obama nominated Sonia Sotomayor to the US Supreme Court on May 26, 2009. The Senate Judiciary Committee provided her with a list of questions to be addressed at the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing that occurred July 13, 2009.After Sotomayor answered the Committee's questions, which took several days, the members had one week to decide whether to submit written follow-up questions, to which Sotomayor would have responded in writing. The Committee then deliberated and decided to send her nomination to the full Senate. She was approved by a Committee vote of 13-6.On August 6, 2009, the US Senate confirmed Sotomayor's nomination by a vote of 68-31, making her the 111th US Supreme Court Justice. Although the vote was split along party lines, the unanimous Democratic endorsement was joined by nine Republicans and both Senate Independents.Associate Justice Sonia Sotomayor was sworn-in on national television on Saturday, August 8, 2009, and will begin hearing cases in the 2009-2010 Term.
